Candida albicans appeared in the urine of approximately 80% of CFW mice of both sexes within 2 weeks after intraperitoneal inoculation. During a follow-up period of 10 weeks, candiduria tended to clear, but persisted in 37% of males as compared to only 16% in females. Autopsy kidney cultures yielded candida in 53% of males as compared to 25% of females. Urine cultures in both sexes when positive contained 10(3.5) to 10(4.5) candida/ml regardless of the outcome of the infection. Preinoculation gonadectomy in both sexes increased resistance to the infection but did not alter the quantitative aspects of candiduria.
白色念珠菌在腹腔接种后2周内出现在约80%的CFW雌雄小鼠尿液中。在10周的随访期内,念珠菌尿倾向于清除,但在37%的雄性小鼠中持续存在,而雌性小鼠中仅为16%。尸检肾脏培养显示,53%的雄性小鼠有念珠菌生长,而雌性小鼠为25%。无论感染结果如何,两性尿液培养阳性时每毫升含有10(3.5)至10(4.5)个念珠菌。两性在接种前进行性腺切除可增加对感染的抵抗力,但并未改变念珠菌尿的定量情况。
